where have you BEEN?
After much nagging from my (two) loyal fans, I am posting to let you know that I have not quit blogging. My life has been a bit unstable these days, and eloquent writing has not been exactly flowing from my fingertips.
So I'm in New York, once again. Showing G. around the city. Looking for jobs, looking for sanity. Went to the penguin movie last night. Cute, but might as well have watched it at home on the National Geographic Channel. That way I could have avoided sitting in front of a couple, once again, who did not know how to WHISPER! I know I've wrote about this phenomenon before, but it never ceases to amaze me. There is a difference between speaking in full voice and whispering. You can tell if you're using your vocal chords, or not. If you are, OTHER PEOPLE CAN HEAR YOU, TOO. You are not in your own little private movie theatre, where you can give your mate a running commentary without bothering the people sitting directly in front of you. God!
